Think it's a little premature to talk about Bruest being in his final 12-18 months. He's kicked 13 goals in 6 games which is pretty decent for a small forward. Guys who play that position can have bad games and are always dependent on delivery up the field, big forwards forcing contests etc. No question he's not quite as good as 5 years ago, but let's reassess at the end of the year.
